Library

The Library of the Society of Friends, based at Friends House, is a unique resource and is one of the largest Quaker collections in the world.

The Library's collection includes books, journals, manuscripts and visual resources, as well as the archives of the central organisation of Quakers in Britain. It is open to all and free to use. We aim to collect and preserve a record of Quaker activity, increase access to information about the Society of Friends, and encourage study in Quaker and related activities.
